HoYay

Noun, abbreviated from 'Homoeroticism, Yay!' The phrase originated from the television programme 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer,' and is used most commonly in various internet fandoms. It can also be an exclamation of glee.

The word is used to describe a homoerotic or homoromantic subtext between two characters, generally on a television show. Where one sees HoYay is, of course, extremely subjective, though in some cases it can be canon, not just subtext, as in the episode of 'Angel' wherein Spike says 'Angel and I were never intimate... apart from that one time.'

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
